Missing word

I feel something like a thorn poking me under my pants.

As I laid down on the bed, something sharp scratched my back. It looked / felt like someone had left some scissors on my bed.

Remind the person in that last sentence not to leave scissors on your bed in future

Thanks for your prompt reply Doodles.

How about a thorn 'sticking' under my pant? Is it wrong to say so or it is just not as good as poking.

Thanks you:-)

perhaps:

to p_r_i_c_k (hm, they seem to have some censorship machine here)

1 : to pierce slightly with something sharp-pointed : make a puncture
in : drive a fine point into <***** holes in paper>: as a (1) : to
wound usually slightly with a pointed instrument <pricked his finger
with a pin> (2) : to give a slight piercing wound to <the pin

oh Marius thanks for your brief but clear definition. I have learned an useful verb today '- "*****"!:). I know "pricky" but i didn't know i could be use as verb on his own.

This forum has censorship machine? i'm not sure but it has been very kind to me so far:-)

ooppssss............this forum has certainly imposed censorship, it isn't nice to me anymore...soob soob......

i just got one word being censored, i wonder why????

is p-r-i-c-k is a bad word????

Hi,

Let's just say that it is appropriate in a discussion that involves the verb 'poke'.

Best wishes, Clive

I'd choose "scratch" and "stab" to fill the blanks.

Dear MrPedantic,

Thanks for your reply. To me, 'stab' somehow sounds a bit serious and perhaps serious enough to cause blood and deep wound. For example, "Stabbing someone with a knife", one can immediately envisage the seriousness of the injury caused. In my sentences, i'd want to express like something sharp is 'disturbing' me but not to the extent where injury incurred. In this case,
